Ekaterina why?

Of all the warhorses why that one? That said, it'll probably work better for her than a lot of other things but ugh. I'm so over Moulin Rouge.

Needs an Alysa Liu trigger warning for strobe effects

kind of surprising they got cleared for Lion King given how other skaters have talked about how difficult/expensive getting rights to Disney music is

Guess it all depends on how much you want to pay.

I'm just annoyed that since they went with a musical they didn't pick the one that plays to their All-American perk perfectly with "The Music Man".

 

[Lanie]

Always up for more Lion King. It’s such a fantastic score, I love it so much I will love any program with it

Emily Chan/Spencer Howe (USA)

FS: Unchained Melody, The Love Inside from "Ghost the Musical"

Of all the "Unchained Melody" versions out there why people use this hideous version is beyond me. Truly up there (close to the bottom with the stage version of "Dirty Dancing") for worst Broadway version of famous movie ever. (And I even saw mega-bomb "Carrie.")

 

[peibeck]

Oh dear, oh my gosh

It's a step up from "Cats," though!

Hey... it worked for the #2 Finns.

Is MR a step up from cats? Or is MR at the bottom of the barrel as far as warhorses?

Yeah but I haven't heard Cats 8 times a competition for the last 15 years.

Unless she goes the Nazarova/Nikitin route and uses the Broadway musical.
